follow this first.

in this link for QT

Deb: sudo apt install qt6-base-dev qt6-base-private-dev qt6-multimedia-dev
You may also need apt install qt6-l10n-tools qt6-tools-dev qt6-tools-dev-tools to build with translation support
You may also need apt install libgl-dev if you run into WrapOpenGL issues while configuring with CMake.

I forgot to say that. I'ts for Citra, but it works for Lime3ds

ExarKunIv

@DTEAM qt6-multimedia-dev is the only thing thats needed (as of right now) from that. so i added to the install depends part

@DTEAM continuing this here so we dont fill this thread just from lime3ds

Ports

there are a few that are marked as doesn't work that might. i cant test them since my job has anything game related blocked. So that's why they don't have a check mark.

if they work for you please let me know.

after more testings i will go back and see about doing a recheck on my Pi4 and then work on getting the ones that don't work on the Pi5 working. if possible

@ExarKunIv Hi,
I have a new suggestion for a port, which I stumbled over some days ago:
https://github.com/ZDoom/Raze
As the Github suggests, it's based on the GZDoom backend, which allows a lot of finetuning.

It's an implementation of nearly all Build games (especially Duke3d, Shadow Warrior, Redneck Rampage, Blood, Nam, Exhumed). The upside is that it supports Vulcan, GL and GLES renderer, the downside is that it's mainly made for Windows. I managed to compile and run it on my RPi5. But it was a pita to set up. Also the mouse seems to stop working on some games at some time. It still works in the menus but not in-game.
I'm still in the exploring phase, and the development of raze is ongoing, but I think it might very well replace all the other ports at some point in the future.

ExarKunIv

@ecto i have come across this before also. i think i tried it once way back, but i just never well looked much more into it after that
hope you can figure something out with it. it would be a nice add to the collection

DTEAM

@ExarKunIv

Could it be useful to use this (for3ds - OpenGL?):

https://www.glfw.org/docs/latest/compile.html

https://discourse.glfw.org/t/glfw-and-mesa/176

ExarKunIv

@DTEAM it could, not sure if that would have a effect on anything else or how to have 3ds just it. thats a little above me

@ExarKunIv

Hi ExarKunlv, I'm chating with the guy from borked3ds. He seems to be interested to run 3DS on a Pi5. it will be appreciated to have people with computer science skills on that chat. I don't feel I'm the good guy to answer to all his questions. I can do some tests but i'm limited.

https://github.com/Borked3DS/Borked3DS/issues/330

ExarKunIv

@DTEAM yes come Monday I can give it a crack and see what I can help with

@ExarKunIv

We have a working 3DS emulator for Pi5!!!! (it works but it's in develloppement at an early stage)
https://github.com/Borked3DS/Borked3DS/issues/330

WIP Shellscript . You can't load a game direcly, you must go by the UI for now.

I updated MESA and Cmake to run it, see here (Post #4)

ExarKunIv

@DTEAM nice. amazing work on getting this to work.

we just need to have a script that will update mesa and cmake and we are all set. lol

@ExarKunIv Today I messed around with some ports, and like to share my findings:

Perfect Dark: runs very well, but the install script needs a little more love: The checksum you need to calculate for the ROM file is a md5, not a sha1. Also, the rom file needs to be renamed. After some fiddling in the pd.ini (needs to be created first) the game plays very well. Thanks for that!
rtcw: is as easy to compile as typing make. An aarch64 compatible binary is compiled and it runs very well.
sstse: I can't get this one to run. It starts and I have a menu, but as soon as I start a new game it crashes to a black screen. Hmmm.
